“Hierarchy / Characteristics” doc GFD.23 • Status: document is an OGF Draft Recommendation • Document is dated May 2004 • Ideas used in the NMWG Schemata • Schemata implemented and in use by: • Dante • EGEE • Internet2 • CLARA • MonAlisa • Discussions on Schemata in progress with the IETF IPPM • Action from NMWG to move GFD.23 to an OGF Recommendation • Create an Experimental doc on GFD.23 usage • Document use of “Hierarchy / Characteristics” doc • Section on use/experience from: • Dante • EGEE • Internet2 2
Document “Schemata for Network Performance Characteristics” Work In Progress. Document Layout: 3. Base Schema Explain that definitive schemata is in RELAX-NG, with XML appendix from specific tool 3.1 Description 3.2 RELAX-NG Code 4. Extension Schema Explain that These Schemata MUST be used in conjunction with the NMWG Base Schema Example (as in how to doc) using characteristic/tool “foo” 4.1 Description 4.2 RELAX-NG Code 5. Extension Schemata for Current Characteristics and Tools 5.1 Round Trip Delay 5.2 TCP Achievable Bandwidth 5.3 UDP Achievable Bandwidth 5.4 Frame loss 5.5 Frame re-ordering 5.6 Bandwidth Utilisation 5.7 ping 5.8 iperf (TCP) 5.9 traceroute 3

Schemata: History • NM-WG then focused on standardizing schemas for exchanging network measurements • Extended concept to • Requesting historical network measurements • Requesting measurements to be made on demand • Traps and Event Notification • NM-WG has Two sets of schemata: • v.1::Monolithic, straight mapping of “characteristics” doc • v.2::Framework: • Base schema - common components, types, topology • Add separate sub-schema for each characteristic and/or tool • Framework has extensibility to just about anything • Schema language: Relax-NG compact syntax 6
Schemata doc: Admin • Suggested Timescales: • Paper draft 0 by next OGF20 May 07 • ‘Almost ready’ Recommendation document OGF21 Oct 07 • Involvement • Coordination: • Eric Boyd • Richard Hughes-Jones – offered to be editor • Mark Leese • The experts: • Dan Gunter • Martin Swany – doing the work • Jason Zurawski • Jeff Boot • More experts: you are welcome 7
